Make my dvd-rom drive faster.

Yeah, you heard the title. I'm sick of having a 24x burner that maxes out at 2-3x with Roxio. Any suggestions on fast programs, or tweaks to increase burning speed?

I also heard that SATA dvd-rom drives are crazy fast, and if so, do you guys think it would be worth it?

Optical drives are relatively fast when reading a single file in a perfectly fine CD, but as long as it has one particle of dust in the surface, they become as slow as a floppy disk and 10 times stupider, partly because of the drives and partly because of the drivers I suppose. BTW, the fastest optical drives for everything but large files I've ever seen were old 9X-12X CD-ROM drives, before they went VROOM VROOOOM because magazine-reading people is retarded and thing 24X is twice as good as 12X.

I wouldn't bother with speed on that.
